Whatever.. don’t just call a protest revolution it’s stupid

If you check the various dictionary definitions of revolution, you'll find that it's this post of yours that's stupid.

Tina26:
Skit. Nairaland is losing it

Right! I don't understand why they'd take a comedy skit and make it seem like a real news item. It's actually quite irritating.

My best read on this episode;

COZA Rape Controversy & The Age of Social Lunacy by Dodoh Okafor

1. On what basis did hundreds of people abandon their morning chores this Sunday to go picket the premises of the Common Wealth of Zion Assembly Church in Guzape Area of Abuja and Lagos?

2. Because a certain woman alleged (without any scintilla of proof) that she was raped? Because 5 women said the Church Pastor had inappropriate sexual relationships with them? Or because Segun Awosika said he has "30" women willing to testify against the COZA founder in law court?

3. What really was the essence of the nasty, rowdy, uncoordinated protests? To embarrass the church? To humiliate the pastor? To get the pastor to step down?

4. Pray- are those protesters really interested in pursuing a strong campaign against rape or were they on a vendetta mission?

5. I do not know what other people may think but here's what I am convinced about: many of those who jumped into this rape issue are being manipulated, misled and used as pawns in a complex game of chess by those who are adept at using the media to manipulate the gullible.

6. The man who conducted the interview that sparked the outrage is a certain Chude Jideonwo- one of the many crafty revisionists Nair El Rufai, Bola Tinubu and their lackeys employed to market Buhari in 2015. You are entitled to your opinion but I am convinced by Jideowno's involvement that a lie is involved, that a campaign to hoodwink the masses has been set in motion and with what I know of social media- a mechanism for creating a media storm has been activated.

7. The lady is probably dishonest and no rational thinker should believe her without at least asking a few important questions. I consider her motive to be suspect at best- reason being- what does she intend to achieve by coming out to tell a story that sound poorly fabricated, lacking in substance and designed to bring opprobrium to a man she had a choice to either deal with or avoid.

8. Many would remember the old Igbo adage that can be simply translated to imply that a raging ocean cannot drown a man whose feet it did not see. Fact is- Mr Fatoyinbo never dragged or nailed the buttocks of any man or woman to his church. Anyone always had the option of walking away the minute you became uncomfortable with his body body language or suggestions.

9. Mr Fatoyinbo did not just see anyone and grabbed her by the waist neither is there any report that he ever saw anyone on the street and pulled his car by the roadside, pushed her side and "opened his zip"

10. To be certain, I am not one to support the violation of trust by anyone in authority especially people from whom much is expected. Pastors, priests, teachers, uncle's and aunties, office superiors and village elders have a great responsibility to carry themselves with dignity and restraint at all times.

11. I am not one to blame the victim but when forceful sexual acts keep occurring and the victim never summoned up the courage to report to anyone but rather submits herself whenever her molester comes around for me has a different interpretation.

12. To imagine that the said Busola Dakolo kept submitting herself to Mr Fatoyinbo, attending his church, singing in his Choir, and as I heard- allowing him to wed her tells an entirely different story. It does not add up. Mrs Dakolo in my estimation may not have told us the entire story or perhaps she is playing a terrible game.

13. It pains me to see Nigerians swallowing that story hook line and sinker because some known social media influencers bought into it. This says a lot about how we have deteriorated in our capacity to think and reason.

14. When did we sublet our thinking power to social media influencers and celebrities? If these men and women care so much about rape- why are they not protesting against the mindless rape and killing of women by fulani cattle rearer/terrorists across most states in southern Nigeria?

15. If they care about women, where were they when a certain Elizabeth Ochanya was raped to death by a man and his son? How much did today's sudden philanthropists donate to support the prosecution of the perpetrators of what undoubtedly is a grave act of wickedness?

16. How much social media awareness did they raise when Eunice Elijah was killed by a band of lunatics in Kubwa Abuja? Why are they not interested in seeing that those behind the dastardly act are brought to book?

17. Where am I driving to? Again to be clear: I would be eager to see rapists and other criminals or those who violate the trust of young girls prosecuted and made to serve their punishment. But I would do everything I can to stop the triumph of online mob action against an assumedly innocent man.

18. Accusation is never conviction. Speaking emotionally while being filmed does not amount to presenting a hard evidence before a court of law. Has social media replaced conventional courts or is there something I am unaware of? Aren't injured people supposed to take their matter to court?

18. Is Mrs Dakolo seeking for justice, revenge, emotional appeal, to create mischief or just to destroy Mr Fatoyinbo? What exactly is this all about? Blackmail or some publicity stunts because none of it is clear to me.

19. Again I ask: what was the protest about? Was the protest against Fatoyinbo or COZA? Shouldn't a protest against Mr Fatoyinbo happen in front of his house? Why did they go to disrupt church programs at COZA today? Shouldn't COZA and Fatoyinbo be separate entities? How come the so-called lawyers who lined up at Guzape today missed this point? So COZA should be brought down because a certain woman told a disjointed story to Chude on camera?

20. Why are people so silly? Where's Stephanie Otobo? Why did she stop regalling us with tales of how Mr Johnson Suleiman "raped" her in Jamaica?

21. I would conclude by advising everyone to be circumspect about what's presented on social media. Truth is- the social media in most cases is structured to weaken your capacity to think, steal your power of logical and deductive reasoning from you and what else? Make you a fool.

22. Buhari and his handlers understood that it is very easy to sell lunacy on social media and the leveraged it to come to power- Ill prepared, with a vindictive mindset and you know where that has landed Nigeria.

23. Interestingly - the same group that sold Buhari to Nigerians in 2015 are behind this Busola Dakolo rape tale. I insist that there's a whole lot more to this hullabaloo.

24. You ask- what of the other 1000 girls that also accused the pastor of rape? I reply with: when did public opinion become the basis of adjudication in matters that require sensitivity and tack? Remember millions of people have voted for Buhari since 2015. Does that confer on Buhari the administrative skill he does not have?

25. What else? Who remembers the women who came forward to accuse Brett Kavanaug of rape soon after he was nominated for a Supreme Court position? When are we picking the US Supreme Court?

Let me end with an advice: never sublet your thinking to anyone- especially people whose agenda you do not understand.

I was legit looking for ways to like this post again, and share it again! This is the most intelligent write up I've seen on this MATTER. Thanks a lot for sharing it.

It suddenly seemed like people's thinking faculties had been suspended, as they just kept chanting silly things, based on someone's unsubstantiated claims!

I came to realize that many people (secretly) HATE (and that's putting it mildly) successful people, so whenever they HEAR that they've been linked to any scandal, people jump such news, having been wishing for (and expecting) their downfall.

I saw many people's posts and I knew they spoke out of sheer resentment for the man, not because they wanted to know the truth, or that they wanted to fight rape. They just always saw this "Gucci pastor", felt he was too flashy for their liking and wanted to see him and his ministry go down.

That being said, there's the possibility that he's actually guilty, and if so, he should be prosecuted all the way. But there's also the possibility that he's not!... So it's extremely dumb to crucify him based on hearsay, with absolutely NO EVIDENCE!

Whoever Dodoh Okafor is, you have sense sir/ma. You have my respect.

seunmsg:
Good riddance. Now that he has stepped aside as pastor of the church, a formal complaint should be lodged against him at FCT Police command and thorough investigation should be conducted. Every lady with a story of abuse by the pastor should be encouraged to come forward and tell their stories. At the end of the day, we want to see full prosecution of the accused if necessary.

We'll all soon see that the purported victim isn't /victims aren't interested in going to the police or prosecuting, cos they can't substantiate their claims... They'd rather prefer to talk about it on and on online.

They could have gone to the police from the beginning. The man's occupation of the office of pastor of the church didn't stop them from doing that... His act of stepping down shouldn't be what should prompt them to make a report.

Sellfish:
CAN does not deal in unsubstantiated rumours

Just like some of us who still have sense

As a lawyer, I intend at the next NBA conference to propose to my senior colleagues that they push that offences of rape and false accusation of rape should be made offences punishable with death

You rape...You die

You falsely accuse someone of rape....You die

Click like if you fully agree with me

Click share if you feel that only rape should be punishable with death, but persons who are discovered to have falsely accused someone of rape should not be punished

Let us do a census of the mad people on nairaland

Baba, I love you broooooo!
You have too much sense inside your head!

KendrickAyomide:
Everybody cannot be wrong !!!

Actually, everyone can.
Everyone (at that time) decided to kill Jesus for crimes he didn't commit and rather let Barabas, the known criminal, go. They were all wrong.

PS: My above comment doesn't really have to do with this pastor's case, I'm just addressing your line of thought.

IamD18:
We really do not care to know the possible factors that engineered Busola Dakolo's decision to accuse him of rape.

All we want is to know the truth before condemning any party. We need a reason and evidence to believe she was actually raped.

Rape accusation isn't something a reasonable person should just believe.

Exactly fam! Exactly.

I read Funmi Iyanda's comment about the whole issue, where she said she TOTALLY believes Busola Dakolo, and I thought, "this is bereft of intelligence, to say the least" because she hadn't even heard from the man, she didn't have any evidence from the Busola, all she heard was her accusation.

Judging a CASE (especially one as grievous as rape) from just accusation from one side is really silly, IMO.

Kingosytex:
e be like say na ruggedy master mind marley's arrest to teach d small boy a little lesson...


lesson: don't always challenge adults, it could be disastrous

It's not only Ruggedman that was pissed at the nonsense that Naira Marley was saying and anyone can report anyone to EFCC. Rugged already said he didn't report the guy.

Let's just leave Ruggedman out of all this and see it for what it is, Marley was silly and he's having the consequences.

Let's wait for another person to come and try to justify another crime. This time, maybe kidnapping.

warlord24:
this caption is wrong...

home which am sure wasn't naija

because the judge said
"first of all you are not going to jail - you are going home"

which am sure means hes house in USA


SO WHERE NIGERIA ENTER FOR THIS MATTER?

Exactly! I was wondering if it was the same video I watched that the op was talking about. Very misleading.

Honestly, this article is a very stupid one.

Ajimobi is a tyrannical, egotistical, proud and arrogant man and there's no amount of damage control the writer of this article can do about it.

Oyo State people would be jubilating on the streets right now if not for the fear caused by the murder of Sugar.

His first term was okay, but his second term? It was like he was possessed by a legion of demons to keep taking terrible decisions and saying silly things. Power just unveiled who he really is. He became the definition of 'drunk with power'.

Support him all you want, Seyi Makinde will win the gubernatorial elections in Oyo State come March 9.

Tinubu is a self-serving deceiver and we don't want his influence in Oyo State.

Well,the last time I checked,English language hasnt paid my bills but I'm not really sure about you though.
Keep speaking or writing your impeccable English language on a forum that doesn't even recognize who you are and never you bother me with your needless corrections please.

Hahaha. Honey, another error there. I didn't make any correction to your English, I only suggested a better question. You should be fine. Enjoy!

phorget:
.

Did God destroyed Shiloh or not?

I think the more important question is 'why are you destroying English language?"
